                  Not only Samsung do that, they forget that other brands like LG, Sony, HTC, Motorola and etc have that same type of architecture inside their smartphones and is not so different than Samsung, so...NVIDIA is a shit company who like to get easy money, NVIDIA have the more expensive products and these products are good, because are shit, heating all the time, getting problem with drivers and etc etc! If other brands get together with samsung in this process NVIDIA will eat the shit she do.

                    [deleted post]That comment make sense....that's why engineering knowledge is very important...
                    To design gpu..people need understand well background of gpu philosophy and strong electrical fundamental.....
                    We don't see samsung capable of soc/gpu intellect.just the brand name of marketing,assembling and selling other people I.P.

                    Nvidia are the among pioneer in this 3d Graphic field and 3dfx/ati was their rival.

                        [deleted post]You obviously never read the quoted comment before replying to it. I see no fanboi-ism in their comment, or any bias that you speak of, if you even know what those words mean ?. I did see some logic in their comment though, which was sadly lacking in yours.

                            Leave Samsung alone.

                            We never wanted or even like Nivida Tegra GPUs in our Samsung phones,
                            so don't be soup grapes when we rejected them.

They buy the... moreThey just designed the GPU and license Samsung to use the design in exynos SoC chip,just like Google design android but the code uding many patents,samsung need license the patent owner.

                                    It seems nobody knows Samsung manufacture Exynos with Mali GPU inside maybe thats why nVidia sues them. Why everybody is thinking its because Qualcomm Adreno and says its not Samsungs fault and nvidia is a troll ?

                                        If you know any of Nvidias history, they are pure scum, way before the mobile chip revolution, looks like to me they are angry because their too much heat producing mobile chip K1 is not accepted by any of the mobile vendors, as it will fry the internals. Go cry me a river Nvidia.
